Connect Google Ads

Link Google Ads so AdCue (website and MCP clients sharing your account) can read performance and run approved tools.

​
Before you start

  • An AdCue account
  • A Google identity with access to the Google Ads customers you manage
  • Admin or standard access on those customers (or a manager identity with direct access)
Manager (MCC) identities are supported. Linked client accounts are not listed automatically unless the Google identity also has direct access to them.

​
Where to connect

Open Connections in the app shell: https://adcue.app/app/connections You can also start connection flows from Setup or product prompts that deep-link to Connections.

​
How to connect

  1. Sign in to AdCue and open Connections.
  2. Choose Connect Google Ads. Confirm the read-only email hint (expected identity, not a password field).
  3. Select Connect. On Google’s consent screen, pick the identity that can access your ad accounts and approve the Google Ads scope (https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwords).
  4. If several directly accessible customers appear, pick a primary account. A single account is selected automatically.
  5. Confirm the panel shows connected status, primary account, and accessible account count.
Website and MCP sessions share the same stored connection — you do not connect twice for each client.

​
What AdCue can and cannot do

Creates still land PAUSED. See Safety model.

​
After connecting

  • List accounts and campaigns from an AI client or future product surfaces
  • Reconnect with another Google identity if you picked the wrong one
  • Refresh accounts from the connection panel after infrastructure fixes (no full OAuth required when refresh tokens remain valid)
  • Disconnect at any time from Connections / Settings
